Text is often the basic element in a lesson. But, by using the capabilities of ActivInspire, the text does not have to be boring. After you learn to enter text into a page, you can manipulate it in a variety of ways. Each text box can be easily moved around the page or highlighted using the paint bucket. Also, you can attach actions to text to make note-taking and textbook exercises more engaging!
Text Tool from the toolbar
Typing text
Text is added to a Text Box. Each text box can be moved and manipulated as an object. I've found that it is best to use multiple text boxes within a page so that I can rearrange and change each piece of text to add variety and interest to a lesson. Practice adding several text boxes to a page. Just click in a new area in a page to add additional text boxes.
Changing Font and Text Size
The Text Tool bar, (shown below) allows you to change the text just as you would in other programs. Highlight the text to be changed and use the tool bar to select a new font, a larger size, bold, italic or underline.
Moving Text Boxes
When you have completed typing in text, use the Select Tool (shown below) to move the text boxes around the page.
